Villa Grove: what fails while nobody is home

From the middle of Villa Grove to its edge, a building left unwatched through a freeze is one call from an independent restoration contractor. Across the 81155 ZIP code area around Villa Grove, about a third of homes burn wood for heat and more use propane.

The housing, by age

Homes across the 81155 ZIP code area, which includes Villa Grove, date to 2003 at the median, with 75.4 percent built after 1989. Across that area, homes are spread over open valley ground, and one heated by a stove or a tank has no heat at all once the fire is out or the tank runs dry.

Cold months and wet months

Nights in Villa Grove normally fall below freezing 7 months of the year, deepest in January at 7 degrees, the stretch when a line in unheated space can freeze with nobody there to notice; August is the wettest month at 1.86 of 8.39 inches a year, both figures recorded at SAGUACHE, 15.5 miles away. January is the coldest month, and with so little precipitation in a year, a dry cold rather than snow is what the empty buildings here have to hold out against.

The weak points here

  • Wood heat in about a third of the area's homes, which stops when the last fire burns down during an owner's absence
  • Propane heat in more than a third, where a delivery missed on a remote road lets the house go cold
  • Seasonal homes in the area, empty for long stretches, where a failure is found only on the next visit

Frequently asked questions

How should a wood-heated home near Villa Grove be left in winter?

Either with a backup heater that keeps running without anyone tending it, or with the water shut off and the lines drained. A stove goes out within hours, and January nights here are cold enough to freeze an unheated house quickly.

What are the risks for propane-heated homes near Villa Grove?

Running out. A tank that empties in a cold week stops the furnace, and a house nobody is in cools until its lines freeze. Remote roads can delay deliveries, so keeping the tank well above empty and using a monitor that sends an alert are the usual protections.

What should be checked first when returning to a seasonal home near Villa Grove?

The temperature inside and the water system. If the house lost heat, turn the water on slowly and watch for leaks, because lines that froze may have split and held until pressure returned. Check under sinks, around the water heater and at any line along an outside wall.
